The day had finally arrived. Very shortly, Twilight would finally be married to the woman she loves. She examined herself in the mirror. She had her hair in locks. Surprising, seeing as how her nerves were shot. She wore a simple white dress made by Rarity. She looked at it in the mirror.
"I wish you were here uncle Greg." She heard a knock on the door. "Come in?"
"Hey, little sister." Shining Armor said, "I'm so proud of you Twily." He smiled, hugging sister. The sibling hug didn't last long as Luna came in. "Twilight? Cadence needs you at the alter." Twilight followed the princess of the night out the door and went to the alter of the church. She turned around and waited. Everyone was in place. The bridesmaids consisted of her, and Fluttershy's best friends, Pinkie and company. Her best man, was Fluttershy's brother Clever.
At long last, the wedding march began. The doors opened and there was her fiancé. Her dad, Galaxy was holding back tears in giving her daughter away. Her attention was focused on Fluttershy. She wore a veil over her face but Twilight could tell she was trying not to cry. Her dress was blue and the frilled trim was a different color, matching those in her hair, it was low cut but hugged her body perfectly. She wore the butterflies bracelet Twilight gave her on their first date and her bouquet was a beautiful mix of white and red roses. Once she got to the alter, Twilight lifted the veil over her perfectly braided and over the shoulder hair. She was in full makeup. Smoky eye-shadow, a light blush against her perfectly tanned skin and purple lipstick.
"You look beautiful." Twilight whispered.
"Twilight, Fluttershy, are you ready?" The love princess asked. The couple nodded.
"Mares and gentlecolts! We are gathered here today to join these two souls, Twilight Sparkle and Fluttershy Griffen, in holy matrimony. Before we continue, the couple has written their vows." Cadence began.
"Fluttershy, when we met, you were making sure the birds were singing on the right key for the summer sun celebration." Twilight began "I was so nervous to talk to you when I got to know you. And it cost me you as you began a new relationship. So I waited. Happy to be your shoulder to cry on if you need one. Then when I moved back to Ponyville from Canterlot, you were single and still as beautiful as I remember. So I brought my courage up and confessed my feelings for you. Best choice I ever made. Fluttershy, each day with you is amazing. And I wanna continue that journey for as long as we live." Twilight finished.
Fluttershy took a breath. "Twilight, after Sliver abandoned me... I was in a dark place for far too long then I wanted. The only reason I'm still alive is because of my Brother, Clever. I was dead inside, and alone for the longest time. Then you told me how you felt about me. I didn't want to, not at first... but I gave it a try. And I felt alive again. Extremely happy. That's how I feel when I'm with you, Twilight. And I never want to lose that feeling." Fluttershy stopped to compose herself, to stop herself from crying. " Every day with you is a adventure and I feel so happy. I want to feel this way forever." Fluttershy smiled.
"That was beautiful." Princess Cadence smiled, "May we have the rings?" She asked the ring bearer, Spike. Spike held the pillow up and Cadence gave each to the other. Twilight slipped the ring on Fluttershy's hand, and vice versa.
"Twilight Sparkle, do you promise to take Fluttershy as your lawfully wedded wife, in good times and bad, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?" Cadence asked.
"I do."
"Fluttershy do you take Twilight as your lawfully wedded wife, in good times and bad, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"
"I do."
"Then as the princess of love, I pronounce you as wife,.. and wife! You may kiss the bride.
Twilight pulled Fluttershy into a deep kiss as the floodgates holding her tears finally shattered.
